I am happy to be here....

Hello everyone, I am new here on STAGE 32, I read a lot off what’s posted and I hope I’ll fit in. I am 35, from Israel, married + 2 yang boys. I work as graphic designer from 8am-5pm every day. Lately I got a little frustrated from the routine in my life so I started writing. I have written before and even got rewards for my short stories (in Hebrew). For a year now I work on my firs script, it’s in English and the few people that read it thinks its grate (it’s a comedy crime by the way). I have no idea what to do now, and that’s way I start looking for a place like here. Any ideas? p.s. I am sorry that I have no picture, I will show me self as soon as I can.

sorry about the spelling mistakes it's hard for me in English (I found 2 of them on my read after i post)

Hi, Gali. Welcome to Stage 32. I, too, have a "day job" other than writing, so I understand your frustration. My best advice for you is to get as many proof readers-- including as much professional feedback as possible-- before you put your work out there. Do some competitions, a workshop, perhaps even coverage once you have done the other two. Keep reading these discussions, too. I am always learning from the Stage 32 community. Good luck!

thanks, will do!

If you a re stuck in the middle of something sometimes it's helpful to go back to the beginning. When you first started to write the script, where was it going? What was the end you had in mind. Every journey has a destination. What was the destination for the characters you had? etc.
